The Beauty in Becoming: Embracing Change Like a Butterfly
Like the butterfly, we go through stages of growth to develop into amazing beings. Some steps feel limiting and awkward and sometimes even lonely, but all these changes carry us through to something greater. I can only image what the tiny little larva egg of the butterfly is thinking as it transitions into a creepy crawly caterpillar to eventually wrap itself into a silky blanket all dark and alone wondering if this is the end, only to be birthed into a beautiful butterfly with brand-new wings which allow it to now fly around the world sharing its beauty for all to enjoy.
As 2024 was coming to a close, I became more and more aware that change was brewing in many areas of my life. From simple changes in my schedule to bigger change within my life and home. It’s as if the vibration of my life and living were begging for an upgrade. My habits, body and thoughts are changing, I can choose to embrace it or resist it. I prefer to embrace it!
The need to begin purging things in our home was evident. I could sense many items no longer needing to hold up space on shelves and in closets. It was refreshing to let them go, making space for whatever greatness was asking to show up next. Simple items like cups and dishes felt bland and no longer brought joy to the kitchen or my body so I decided it was time to switch them up for something new. It didn’t make logical sense because the cups and dishes we had worked just fine. I just knew it was time for change and if I refused to follow the pull, I was also refusing the possibilities and magic that was waiting for me to choose it. Thank goodness hubby is also understanding of these energetic pulls. His trust in me creates a beautiful space of allowance to follow what is true for me. I have no reason to justify, hide or defend what I am doing. Even the world around me was sending signs confirming that change was evident for me. License plates with 555 popped up everywhere during my everyday travels. The number 5 indicates that transformation/change lies ahead, trust this transition is for your highest good. Anticipate the thrill of exciting developments on the horizon.
I am so excited to see what shows up over the following months and years!
